Friends! I need some help deciding on this SOB’s character design!!
The first one I made is a combo between whiteface and circus clown, mostly because I enjoy the symbolism of whiteface makeup but I feel like more circus clown makeup and vibe fits better with her character (horrifying dog energy). Also taking away the spots so she’s just solid colored to keep the design more simple? Idk idk
Any thoughts to help me decide between the two designs or any additional input that I can use would be super helpful! Please feel free to check out her full description in “#the showman” on this page and @shyartistscorner. Please forgive messiness, I just wanted to get some basic concepts out, also click for better quality!
Which one do you prefer?
Showman 1 (whiteface influenced, cap, full ref sheet)
Showman 2 (largely circus clown, party hat, small pieces)
